Write a comment

Kesha has teamed up with legendary DJ and producer Armin van Buuren for a new club-ready remix of “DELUSIONAL.,” bringing a hard-hitting trance edge to one of the standout tracks from her sixth studio album, .(PERIOD). “DELUSIONAL. (Armin van Buuren Remix)” is out now via Kesha Records and has already made waves across social media and festival crowds ahead of its official release.

From the opening moments, the remix hits with driving energy. Retro-leaning trance melodies cut through a pounding beat as the track builds into a euphoric, late-night club anthem. Van Buuren preserves the emotional core of the original song while reshaping it into a high-impact dancefloor release, pairing classic trance textures with a modern production style.

The remix has already proven itself live, with van Buuren debuting it during recent sets at major events including Amsterdam Music Festival 2025 and Tomorrowland Brazil. Fans quickly responded, helping the track become a favorite across social platforms before its official release.

Speaking about the collaboration, van Buuren shared that he and Kesha first connected in the studio several years ago and have continued creating together since. He explained that when Kesha asked him to rework her favorite song from the album, his goal was to maintain its message while infusing it with his own sound. He described the remix as energetic and uplifting, driven by euphoric trance melodies that reflect where club music is today.

“DELUSIONAL. (Armin van Buuren Remix)” follows the recent release of “GLOW. (Blusher Remix),” which features Australian pop trio Blusher. Blusher will also join Kesha as special guests on the upcoming Australia and New Zealand leg of her headline world tour, The Tits Out Tour. The tour begins February 19 at Brisbane’s Riverstage and includes sold-out shows in Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth, along with festival appearances at Sydney’s Mighty Hoopla and Christchurch’s Electric Avenue.

Both “DELUSIONAL.” and “GLOW.” appear on .(PERIOD), Kesha’s critically acclaimed sixth album, which debuted at number one on Billboard’s Top Dance Albums and marked a major milestone in her career. Following the Australia and New Zealand dates, Kesha will continue The Tits Out Tour with her first UK and European headline run in over a decade, beginning March 4 in Berlin and concluding March 31 in Dublin.

With this remix, Kesha and Armin van Buuren deliver a high-energy trance reinterpretation that bridges pop songwriting and festival-scale electronic music, reinforcing the album’s versatility while firmly planting “DELUSIONAL.” in club territory.
